HEPATOBILIARY
The hepatobiliary department is a medical specialty focused on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of diseases and conditions affecting the liver, gallbladder, bile ducts, and pancreas. The term "hepatobiliary" is a combination of "hepato-" (referring to the liver) and "biliary" (relating to the bile system, which includes the gallbladder and bile ducts).
Common conditions managed by the hepatobiliary department include liver diseases such as hepatitis, cirrhosis, and liver cancer, as well as gallbladder issues like gallstones and bile duct obstructions. It often involves both medical and surgical treatments, with specialists in hepatology, gastroenterology, and surgery working together to provide comprehensive care.
